Now that's a history
-
Theatrical cartoons were filmed in color as early as 1934. MGM and Warner Brothers definitely did that back then while Paramount's biggest stars Popeye the Sailor and Betty Boop were seen in black and white with the exceptions of three Popeye two-reelers from the late 30's-early 40's.

The whole decor cost only $18.30? That is WAY cheap compared to today.
Even if you got the whole bolt of fabric on sale, it'd STILL run you somewhere up in the hundreds.

@abigguitar Yes, but bought products would have been comparatively more expensive up to the 1980s, as there was less automation despite lower wages.
-
@smeeling Oh no, Colour film came in in the late 30s, like Gone with the Wind, Robin Hood or the Wizard of Oz for example. Black & White continued to be used in films through the 40s and 50s for cost reasons.
Incidentally some stars (like Bette Davis) just didn't film as well in Technicolor, so they favoured Black & White into the 60s.

The item costs about ten times that much today.

Wait... I thought there wasn't color film until the 50's?

Poor cat. I think all it's claws got left behind in the armchair when the woman pulled it off.
